Breaker Morant: The Retrial
2 x 60’ or 1 x 120’, 2013, HD
This documentary tells the story of the greatest military controversy in Australian history — the trial and execution of Harry ‘The Breaker’ Morant. 110 years after he was executed by the British during the Boer war, this film reconsiders the Breaker Morant case, through cross-examinations of historians and legal experts, and the presentation of evidence that suggests betrayal and subterfuge at the centre of the trial.
